On the Gravitational Precession Memory Effect for an Ensemble of Gyroscopes

Abstract

We study the thermodynamic properties of a freely falling ensemble of gyroscopes after the passage of a weak gravitational wave. Due to the precession memory effect, the thermodynamic quantities will experience a change because of the space-time perturbation. We discuss that this GravoThermo memory effect potentially can be used for the detection of the gravitational waves.
